Orange County CAF's: up to no good

Likewise! I only wear contacts for surfing and working out. They itch too much to wear all the time.

 

The frame wasn't tight enough so it'd keep slipping off when I'd look down. I should get new ones but I like contacts better. I'd have to get prescription sunglasses too, that's when my sight is the worst is while driving without. Signs are blurry af.

I've worn mine for like 4 days straight without taking them out

 

Toyota is wanting to charge me $200 to install my extended brakelines.... Anyone installed these themselves before? Looks like im going to have to do this install alone and need to see what im getting into

 

I went to a local shop. $50 for the pair. Well worth it considering you need the brakes bled.

 

yeah i'm like blind as a bat. I get dizzy if i don't have glasses or contacts- i'd be fucked in an apocalypse

and thats so fucking bad for your eyes dude, take that shit out every night and put in new solution. those multiple day wear contacts are a crock of shit.

 

Maybe I need to call around a little more, Would ask where you had it done but I see your in SD

 

Ya don't pay them $200 for a $50 part. They're not that hard. I didn't do them alone but @dtaco06 did them as he knew what to do. It's really just unplug old ones, plug on new ones, bleed the brakes. Done.

 

I have heard its pretty easy but when I was reading up on the install on TW I saw a few people who had issues with soft breaking after due to not having properly bled the breaks. Seeing as I have no experience I feel like I might be prone to a mistake like this

 

My contacts are monthly ones. They don't get irritated or itchy until I've worn them for like a month and a half. I usually take them out I just get too tired and forget about them and then I'm in bed when I remember and I'm not getting up to take them out lol

 

If you have someone to help bleed them it's really easy. If you can find a place to do them for 50 I'd just do that. I still need to install my front lines

 

This is a relatively simple job to do, Just make sure you have a quality flare nut wrench in the right size.

I installed mine solo, but, you do need a second person to help bleed the brakes.

 

Yea I will have to look around, if I can find a relatively good deal I will pay that for peace of mind. I have to have both the front and rears installed, heard it doesn't take much longer than an hour for someone who knows how to do it.

Out of curiosity did you have any prior experience with this before your install?

 

I was a bicycle mechanic for a while and bled my share of hydraulic mountain bike brakes. But no experience with car brakes prior to this.

 

* Not that hard to do if you have the correct tools *



Or when @dtaco06 does all the work while you pump the brakes

 

It wasn't hard, strenuous work whether he did it or I did it. The worst part was it was hot as shit out. It's a pretty easy thing to do, now that I've seen it done. Yes obviously you need the tools but you need the tools for everything.

 

Yes, I follow the funny pictures thread too. I don't know how that's fucking possible though. That lady must have worked hard to get those contacts stuck in there

 

thats. fucking. insane.

 

@uhplifted what did you do to get the 3rd gen.section of the forum removed!

 

OMG IT'S GONE
